Archaeologists found a scroll fragment containing encrypted Roman messages, using a certain Caesar-style cipher, where each letter is shifted backward by 3 in the alphabet. One message on the scroll reads “KHOOR” and another reads “WKLQN”.
Based on the following information, select for 1st the decoded version of the first message, and for 2nd the decoded version of the second message.

Solution:
1 HELLO for KHOOR
2. THINK for WKLQN
Just count each letter backward by three in the alphabet sequence: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
1 HELLO for KHOOR
2. THINK for WKLQN

first encrypted msg is KHOOR - which contains two Os at the third and fourth places. So repetition of letter occurs in the third and fourth places. Only HELLO has the sequence.
The common letter between first encrypted word and second is letter K
KHOOR and WKLQN
k is decoded as H
so WKLQN should contain H at second place. Only answer with H at second place is THINK.
